Abstract
The paper describes the factors which control back surface reflectance (BSR) in solar cells. High BSR has been used to reduce operating temperatures for space power solar cells and solar cells operated at high current, under concentrators or in TPV applications. High BSR also increases current in high efficiency Si solar cells.Keywords
